Thread: Negative Feedback please.... Tombie Chips

Tombie sounds to me like your priorities are right, family, main work and then side jobs
I enjoy mucking around with/in my landie but my family and job to provide come before it.
im exactly the same one of your ecu upgrades is on my to do list, along with about 1/2 a dozen other things(cv's, front axles, 4.11diff, wheels, intercooler, duel batt, winch to name a few), but it has to wait till i get the time and money to spare and with 4.5 kids it is a very elastic timeline
If we wait years till we are ready to tune up our LR surely we could wait a month or so while you do a rotation at work.

Mike, it sounds as though you are STILL back where you were when we last talked of work and life priorities/ happiness etc. IF you can ditch the shift work and go with the Rover stuff, lets face it your passion, then DO IT. Life is Wayyyy too short.

All the best mate, I'm sure you'll make the right decision when you are ready. Don't forget to ring me every now and then, too..I quite enjoy a chat about all things Rover

MY only complaint is not being able to get you on the blower too!

Mike,the odd ocassion I have needed to contact you,it hasnt been a problem,obviously catching you on the rotation.
Main complaint I here from some of the WA blokes has already been made,contactability/returning emails.
I think if you do get into the hard soldered ECU upgrades you have a great bussiness opportunity.I think I would revert to a non flashtune ECU in my early TD5 rocketship

Your honesty is more than appreciated...

All feedback is appreciated - received and is being put together in an attempt for me to put it all "on track".

I have so many concepts, ideas and designs in my head, on paper and in CAD drawings.

If I can get some things to fall into place I know it will all work.

At the moment, work and house renovations (workshop) are still ongoing and finding time for emails and family are tight - no excuse really - but I'm struggling to juggle it all.

sounds like I need to move to Adelaide.

Mike – I purchased a few items for my D2 couple of years ago and was wrapped with the service and the products (we still are, the TD5 is going great!).

I’m currently looking to do the same mods to the L322 and have not had a response from several emails over the last couple of months, I know you mentioned not complain about contact but that IS the problem – really gives us no option sometimes other than going elsewhere…

only thing i could say is the chip smokes alot befor the boost comes on then clears out, td5

Working on it all guys, keep the feedback coming if you like.

I've just finished concreting this

So will be setting it all up over the next month or 2 and then back in the game in a bigger way.

My re-map from you in 2007 is great on the power side but as mentioned above does smoke excessively. I do get the surging thing if the engine is booted really hard.

Don't know if it is related but after 2 years I had my first warped manifold and it's gone twice since then!

On the service side I was more than happy with sending you the ECU and getting it back 2 days later.

cheers
